The collection No Man's Rose is central to Celan's poetic oeuvre and is considered the pinnacle of his work. It includes poems written between 1959 and 1963. Like The Linguistic Grid, it contains a clearly defined poetological programme, which is also a project of being. The construction of a new reality involves existential questions and issues of cultural identity, especially the suffering caused by the Holocaust, and the discovery of Russian literature, which was embodied for him by the Russian-Jewish poet Osip Mandelstam. The cosmic dimensions of Celan's universe are expressed, among other things, in numerous intertextual connections that show him to be an extremely open-minded poet.
